The 2 friends are equipped with a three brand new tracks.
Fans were given a day to hype themselves up for some brand new Flume. The Australian producer declared yesterday he would debut a concerted EP with climbing hip-hop Reo Cragun titled Quits. This afternoon Flume (real name Edward Harley Streten) and also Cragun joined Zane Lowe on Beats 1 into premiere the lead single – and soon after the whole EP was launched! It was previously reported at a press release that the EP was to be released on Friday, August 2nd. The early drop appears similar to when Knife Party had been on air using Lowe and subsequently their Lost Souls EP was introduced early. Coincidence?
Streten’s collaboration with Cragun includes the previously released single”Friends,” the title track”Quits,” and”Levitate.” All three monitors highlight Cragun’s distinct vocals as Streten’s experimental and atmospheric soundscape requires the listener on a exceptional journey. Even the three-track EP is a clear indication both of these were meant to operate together. Both performers are changing the landscape, perhaps never prepared to conform to a sound.
“Reo’s got a fantastic ability to accommodate whatever’s going on musically,” said Streten. “Whether it’s something on the side or something high energy he’s competent to complement and engage with it in a means that is quite unique.”
“Working with Flume is always amazing,” said Cragun. “He does such a great job of getting whatever he hears inside of his brain written out. Around the start of us hanging out he had these crazy fast scooters that took us around his neighborhood during our session breaks. He was building his studio at the time so we would pop in over there and use our imaginations to construct what was to come. It was so inspiring. I’m really fortunate that we were able to become such great friends outside of the music. I have nothing but love for Harley! ”
Streten has taken 2019 by storm since the release of the Hi This Is Flume mixtape. He followed that up with his collaboration with Cragun and then”Let You Know” containing London Grammer. This three-track EP comes out right in time for Osheaga, Lollapalooza, 2 Flume & Friends shows at Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Outside Lands, plus a long list of different locations around the world.
